LIVE: Tennessee legislature votes on whether to expel Democrats after gun control protest

Tennessee’s GOP-dominant House votes on whether to expel three Democratic members, Reps. Gloria Johnson, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, for participating in a gun control protest following the Nashville school shooting.

The move has quickly been deemed as extreme as the House has only ever ousted two lawmakers from their elected positions since the Civil War.
